#110 - Morgan #2

not so much the studio, but in my office. I have a small studio where I usually would cut commercials, and so we were talking to Morgan number two, who was the newest addition to our rooms, the main room. So that's episode one ten. It's the Bobby Cast. Thanks for hanging out. Be sure check out that Jake on podcast and share this with your friends too. If there's one that you like, like the red Achins one. That one gets shared a lot, if you'd like one I had to kip more one, or if you go way

back to share it. The only reason we get to be heard by people, and you know share it is because you share it. So thank you, and now let's go to our Bobby Cast with Morgan number two. Here we go. All right, Welcome to Bobby Cast, Morgan number two here Heyrgan. What's up? So we are actually in between setups, so like ten thirty, we have to go back in the studio to record some stuff. So we have about thirty minutes or so. I just wanted to bring you in because you haven't actually been on the

Bobby Cast as a guest yet. Yeah, this is my first time. She the only one. I guess Hillary hasn't. But Hillary, So you've been with the show for how long? We're going on? Nine months? Almost ten? Not a year? Yes, no, not a year before you came and we're part of our show. What were you doing here? I was the digital program director of Nashville, so I oversaw six radio stations and their social media's. So you did what you do for us, but for a bunch of radio stations,

all the stations combined. Was it what our show is like? Workwise? Like, I don't amount. Yeah, I mean, honestly, it's different. So I get a focus on the show, and I get a focus on people and their personalities and stuff. Whereas the radio show I was really focused on the brand on the radio station. Yeah, Like it was focused on the genre of music and it was harder, It was harder to connect with. So it was just a different type of work, but probably about the same. Were you

never even were expecting to be part of the show. No, that was never in my like. I just never thought it would happen. I never thought the job would open. I thought it would always be full. Well, not I had it. You know, she was with us for five five years before she left, right, and so not a left and nobody knew not I was leaving. I knew not I was leaving. Not I told me she was leaving. And so I remember pulling Morgan number two and we were just going to fill in as we looked for

because we did look for people. We had interviews and we talked to a bunch of people. And that's when I learned that you were actually a listener of the show and you were a kid, which was so weird because I had no idea. But you grew up in witchtok Kansas. Yeah, back in back in Witch and when you guys were on the pop station. It's when I listened to you guys and I drive in my when I first learned to drive, you guys were the first radio station I started listening to. And just from then on.

I that's so weird, I know, and to this day, like I can't remember specific moments, but I can remember driving to high school every morning and I was listening to you guys, and I was listening to pop music. That's all I remember. So then you go to school in Kansas State. Out of high school, it's Manhattan, Manhattan, Kansas. Yeah, how far is that from two and a half hours? Do you like it there? I loved it. Kansas State is incredible, like my favorite school ever? And what did

you study journalism? To do? What I wanted to be? On news? I wanted to go on the new side of things. I always thought anchor, Um, so I did Did you did it? Because I did it? Or I was like the anchor of the college news. Did you do that? Yeah? I was like a TV broadcaster. And then Entertainment's really hard to get into entertainment of any kind, any art. It's hard to actually make a living at yes, So I was like, oh, news is like a good way to get into broadcast journalism, which is what I

wanted to do. And then out of college, I had interned at was what was then Clear Channel before I heart radio. I'd intern out of radio station just to get some time in and they had an opening as like a graphic designer. I was like, well, I don't really design things, but I could probably figure out the rest. And I kind of managed my way in an interview, and from then on it was like, Okay, well I guess I'm in radio now. So then you started working

for our station. I don't remember meeting you. Did you worked our events? Right? Yeah? I worked when you guys came, like the first time as the Raging Idiots in which the time played was that at the with with Kelsey? Yeah, like at the Circle Indoor. Oh my gosh, I can't even think of it right now, but it's like a little theater venue. Yeah, we were. We were so bad at that point. You guys hadn't even started your band.

Like it was just you and Eddie. It was just Eddie and I and Kelsey and Kelsey would open and then she'd come up and play with us Kelsey Vallerini And there were three thousand people that showed up even then. Yeah, that's why huge my book tour because I haven't been which I was the first market we ever went on, like at someone in which Ta. I mean, I know who it was, but he took our show, and I said, hey, if you let me do it for free, like I'll

pay for everything. I'll pay for the transmission, I'll pay for the phone lines, like every single part of it, I'll pay for. But we need that real estate, we need that the morning show. And they gave it to us. And it was the first station that we ever were successful on outside of Austin, where we just had one city. It's the only where we were in And I said, I will forever the rest of my career make sure to go to which To at least once a year

every year. And I haven't been this year. And I granted it's only March right now, but as I'm touring out the rest of the year, I don't we can't make a comedy show work yet, you can't. But on my book tour, I'm gonna go to I will for sure go to which Tall because man, it's so cool. Everybody is so warm and welcoming. Does we don't even live there? That's the crazy That's the craziest part to me is I always have this weird thing too where

I go. I don't know why people like me, Like, I don't know how that we as a show and even me at times have this rabid following of listeners will do whatever, Like I don't quite understand what it is that makes them so passionate. The same thing about which talk. I've never lived there. We just brain only got lucky with that town and I've stayed loyal to it. But they didn't have to like me to begin with. No, But I think you guys radiate like this super just

chill energy, and that's how Whichita is. People are so cool and laid back and they just love an environment that is positive, and that's exactly what the show is. So what's that room like for you in there now? Because because Morgan number two sits, I sit behind the big table and then everybody else sits on the other

side of the table. So I sit on one side and Morgan number two SATs exactly in front of me, and there's a monitor kind of covering us, so we never really see each other eye to eye because it's a big computer screen right in front of us. But you do sit right in front like I could reach out and touch you as the show is going. But you sit in the room. You sat at the big kids table because it's Amy, you, Lunchbox and Eddie, And how has that been good? I mean my first few months, man,

I was I was just so scared. I never wanted to talk because it's one of those things where you're like, you don't want to say the wrong thing, you don't want to do the wrong thing, and you're like, I gotta figure out all these people and who they are first before I figure out how I'm going to navigate and my personality is going to work. So you mean figure out all the people. Do you mean that that

we were different from what you expected? Well, I think I think anybody in entertainment is different than what you expect. Everybody puts on the front. I mean just a normal people put on the front. And so when I got in there, I started to find out like just different sides of people's personalities that they weren't always showing on air.

So it was cool, but it was always quiet, Like we talked so much on the on the mics, and then it's just quiet in the studio, And it takes a long time to learn people that way because you're not talking all the time. You would think that's how it is, but you guys talk so much on air that when the mics are off, you're like, I get a break, I get a breathe. Yeah, it's a it's a breathe. And then for me, it's also preparing for

what's coming up next. So I've got my laptop up, I'm going over notes, going okay, we're gonna talk about next. But the thing is, the rest of the show doesn't know what we're gonna talk about, so nobody has the notes. Now Mike d does I give him a copy just so he can kind of predict where I'm going in a handy sheets paper and stories and reminders, But other than that, nobody else on the show has any idea.

So you're right. As soon as I'm done off, Eddie and I may joke a bit about something, yes, but most of the most of the time, it's really quiet in there, Like unless a really funny but it happens, we may laugh a little bit and then just quiet down again. You've also come in at a time where we've been together for almost fifteen years now. We pretty much said everything. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we pretty much talked

about everything. I also think that because you work in the morning, with that, like, I'm just not a morning person, never have been a morning person. I am never pleasant at whatever I rolling. I'm just never, never pleasant. And so it takes me to about seven and I'm like, so the first hour and a half, I'm just faking it. Look at me like how positive I am? Love? But it sucks every morning it sucks. And I think that's

the thing too. You have to handle this all differently in the morning, Yeah, because I'm not a morning person. Well that's that's what's hard too, is you do have to handle everybody different. Everybody has different personalities, and you guys have known each other for so long. And I'm kind of like the new kid that got introduced at school and it's like, but we welcome to you. End though. Yes there's a difference in a new kid who gets

forced into a classroom. Yes, it's someone who's welcomed in absolutely. So what's the fronts? Like you say, everybody puts on a front or a different side. So what about Amy? What side of people? And I don't know the front? Maybe what side do we not see of Amy that you see? Could you sit right beside her? I think it's just that she has so much going on in her life personally, Yeah, and there's so much more to

her than sweet Amy. Like she has these fun, fight ste personalities, and she also has really timid personalities and that that was interesting to me because on air she's always very sweet or she's kind of motherly on air, but she has a really good like mix of personalities on the side, and sometimes that especially to like insecurities. People always think that famous people we have it all good and everything's great. But Amy has gone through a lot and she's had a lot in her life. Do

you think you're famous? I'm like, I don't even think that famous. No, no no, no, no. I mean I'm just saying, especially you and Amy and Lunchbox, like you guys have been at this for so long that you are famous innocence you know. I always say we're regionally known, I mean United moderately regionally known. Um, I think with it, And I think our show is a bit different now because we don't have as much room to talk. We used to do a full talk show for five hours,

maybe play one song an hour. Now we're playing four songs an hour. And as things get bigger, you have to kind of uh trim things up a bit, and so so I think some of Amy's I would say angry Amy at times. It's coming out now because she just comes in tired and when you're tired, because I do this when I'm tired, that's when I get in trouble or do the best radio. If I come in and I'm exhausted, it's the best or worst show because

I just don't. I always care about the product, but the creative part of me goes, I'm just gonna throw it out there because I don't. I don't have the energy to try to put bread on each side of the meat sandwich. And so Amy's now this. Sometimes she comes in and she's just a ball of especially the last three months it's your kids. She's a ball of fire. And I'll go, WHOA, I didn't know that was coming today.

But I think you're right. And we've been able to see a bit more of Amy's personality on this show in the last few years. Uh, in the last few months, especially because of the kids. When you come in tired or upset, you just it's like, I'm not even doing a show. And we try to not do a show show anyway. We try to be as real as possible. But okay, how about Eddie. I think I think Eddie is the most authentic on air and in person. He's really like he doesn't transition much like when he goes off,

Very's still about the same person. He's still kind of honoree and doesn't act like a dad sometimes, but he's also still a dad. See. I think Eddie's plays a roll away a bunch like you do. Oh yeah, probably the most him or lunch Box because lu Box is a really sweet guy. He's also a real dick like me at times. But I think that Eddie does that that whole Oh I'm such a father's such a daddy. That's he plays that up so much. Yeah, it's funny to hear your perception on things being around us for

eight months. I know, because neither one of us are right. There's no I don't believe really in truth, just perceptions. Yes, and that's I mean, that's true. The other hard part for me is I haven't got to hang out with you guys much outside of the show. I learned your guys lives outside of the show much because I came in at such a unique time for all of you that there's so much going on in your personal lives.

And I'm just kind of like, I'm gonna wait until maybe the waters settle, and the water will never settle. But you're right now that I think about it, I don't think you and I've ever hung out, No, not outside, which makes me feel bad, But you know what, I don't hang out with anybody, But that doesn't mean I shouldn't reach I can't believe we've never hung out outside

of work. Well, every time I've been in a situation, I think I've always been around you guys for something work related, even if it wasn't in the studio, it was work related, not crazy abnormal when we're related to me, because that's really all I do. But but that is still weird that we've never like had But that's a two way street too. It's still my fault. I've just

been scared, Like I think. The hardest thing for me is I'm just kind of This is such a unique situation and until you're put in it, you have no idea how you're gonna act. It's a it's a wild road to walk into because again, we've known each other so long, we've been even Eddie, who hasn't been on the show, but for a few years, has been my friend for twelve years. So yeah, you're the one in the room that isn't intertwined from years and years and

years and French Persant brought you into the room. You know you're you're here. We needed someone to fill in. You filled in. We're like wastch pretty good. We don't hate her and let's just start with there. And yeah it's a weird play, okay. So with Lunchbox, I always say he always plays up his angry side and we try to go, you dude, you show your nice side, like talking about your chair, talk about But he's a weird one because he gets rage filled. But he's also

really kind. Yeah he hasn't He does have a big heart and he's very sweet, but he's he's also so loud. His personality is just loud, Like even when he's really sweet, he's being loud and he's obnoxious. And I don't mean obnoxious meaning it's all bad, Like obnoxious can also be funny. But I feel like now he feels like he owes it to everyone to be this loud just at times, angry person all the time. But sometimes he does flip the rage switch and it's real. It's unlike anybody else

on the show. When he gets like the boxing thing he flipped, I've seen scary. I've seen him flip on Amy and he goes rage eyes and you go, whata. You gotta stop, You gotta stop because that is a thing where boom it's on and if you don't stop him, he's gonna scream and get Yeah, that was that was a crazy He goes rage when he goes ragebox, you have to watch out. But yeah, but I do think lunchboxes a bit has started to share some of that with us a bit. He started to dip his toe

in the I don't always have to be a dickhead water. Yeah, but it's still there. I think he just has such different opinions on things that he's always kind of the outstanding opinion, you know what I mean. He always has the different thing to say than anybody else, and it's it's the unpopular opinion. He's that kind of person think all of us have, Like Amy has a different opinions everybody. I just think he's louder, so it comes across is

a way different. Yeah, Like his personality is so loud, so when he says it, it's like, it's what's happening because Amy has a different opinion. Everybody in the room too, Yes, but she says she makes you feel like it's not that bad, right up. So okay, what about me? Oh man, I don't know you're You're so complex. I'm still figuring you out. I don't think. I don't think Amy figured has figured me. I don't. I don't think I figured

me out. That's why I go to therapy all the time. Well, there's some days I come in and I'm like, Oh, Bobby likes me, and then I'm like, oh, Bobby hates me. But I don't know. It's none of that. It's Amy and I have this thing we're gon talk about were when we write numbers on because Amy and I are both just head cases and very sensitive on our own ways.

So we're just gonna write down the number on how we're feeling that day when we walk in, and if our numbers around the same, if I feel like a seven and she's a six or seven, we're pretty good. But I came in yesterday and I was like three too and a half three My dogs dead. I've been upset about that and just a few things that happened, and so I would have come and written to two on the board, which means handle with care. And but yeah, no, no, I I don't ever not like anybody, or you wouldn't

be in the room. This is true. But I don't do good with confrontation. I like to always either have it out or not have any at all. And so anytime I'm like, I don't know how somebody feels about me, I kind of retreat. You're asking me about that, because you mean she's the king of handling me, yes, and no, I mean right, I don't really ask her anything because I just know she has so much on her plate. I'm like, that's the last thing. You're signing all these

things to people. You shouldn't do that. You shouldn't assigned that everybody has all this stuff to do. I just like to be cautious of other people's life. But you'll never break that barrier unless you actually break it. If you're waiting for someone else to break the barrier to you will never be broken. Which is so weird because every every other time in my life that's how I've been. But with this show, I think I've just kind of turned into an introvert, like, I'm just scared. I just

don't want to make the wrong move. But there's not a right move, or there's a wrong move. If you reached out. If you text me and I said, hey, can we go have launched or something, I be like, oh, I don't want you like breakfast, but we can figure something out. And I would say yes to that. Well, then I need to do that, and that's my food. I haven't done it though, because I'm scared. I don't think you should have signed a fault, but I just think you're never Nothing is going to happen unless you

make it happen. We're talking it on the show today because I was saying, hey, you know they should let me do this is and they'd be like, man, you got big head there. I said, listen, if my dreams are big for me, nobody else's dreams are big for me. If you don't make things happen for you, nobody else gets a crap. No one's gonna make things happen for you. So you have to go, hey, Amy, if you get a what I'll do. There are people that I know are very busy, and I go through the same thing

with them. But I'll say, hey, if anything in April, if lunch, let me know, and just make it wide open that way I've asked, and they can still find a place to where I'm not assigning myself into their life in an uncomfortable way because I can tell it makes you feel uncomfortable, So don't just but a bit

of all of breaking through is being uncomfortable until you're not. Yeah, and I need to do that, and I and I feel it and I know it, but it's still that that half fear of being like I just don't want to say something. I don't want to upset somebody or but that's the that's the luxury that we all have. And we've been friends, we all say things and upset each other all the time, all the time, and so eventually you're going to do that. So do you want to do it now, You're gonna do it later, like

just whenever you want to get in. I know, I know, I think I've like half halfen. I'm about like I was tiptoeing at the beginning. I got one foot in. Now I need like that other foot to jump full in. You're well liked, Everybody likes you, if I didn't like you want to be around. Yeah, I mean, because I mean I can go hey, goodbye, or hey, you know, join the show. Yeah, that's for now that my name is on the show, so I get to make those decisions. So do you feel like you're well liked? I do.

I mean, I don't feel like I have a controversial personality, but I just I think I have a fear of being unliked. And that's that's something to me that I just have to deal with. Let me let me talk about Warry Parker for a second. Okay, all right, I gotta I gotta commercially do over here. Do it free try on at home program, which I've done this before, five pair of glasses, try them off for five days. There's no obligation to buy ships for free and includes

a prepaid return shipping label. All you have to do is go to Warby Parker dot com slash Bobby and you can order your free try ons right to your home today and so glasses starting bucks, including prescription lenses. Lenses include Anti Glazer, Anti Scratch. I posted a picture on Instagram the day of like nine pair of glasses, a bit five or six of them or Warby Parker glasses.

So there's a warby Parker iTunes app which there's just a lot and so if you're looking for glasses, let me suggest you go over to Warby Parker dot com slash Bobby and what happens. You get this box and all the glasses that you've picked from online are in this box, and you get to keep them and share them and then put them on and go, Hey, Sally. I don't know if you have friend named Sally is probably the older maybe, Hey, Rebecca, how are my glasses?

And then she tells you, and if you like them, you keep them and you get the lenses put in, and if you don't, that's okay too. It's pretty seamless warby Parker dot com slash Bobby Warby Parker dot com slash Bobby. And you can see that they have an iPhone depth camera too. You can try glasses on basically without even having them on your head. So there you can Warby Parker do love them all? Right? Back to me, let's talk about this. So you say I'm complex, What

does that mean? Just that I know that there's so much to you, and there's so much good to you, and I know that a lot of bad things have happened in your life, and that's what typically happens with complex people. That's where that personality comes from, is that so much has happened to him, So they have all of these different emotions and they're just hard to figure out because they've already figured out life. They already know how they feel about a lot of things. And that's

how I think you are. And I think you're very sure of yourself now. I think if I would have met you fifteen years ago, that wouldn't have been the case. But I think now I'm meeting you at a really cool time in your life where you're just you're you feel really good. And that's the complex that I find. But then some days I come in and I'm like, oh, I don't know, Bobby, I don't know what's going I

think personally my life is a disaster. But fessionally, I mean, I think success breeds confidence, and I've had a good run of success there. But you only see me the professional. That's the weird thing you're talking about, that you only see me at work. Like if you ask Amy that she would go, oh, he's a nightmare. He's a disaster. He's just he's a troubled amy text me all the time. You okay, you're good, You're okay. But that's true, you've

only seen this side. But I think that's what makes you complex, is at least you're in touch with your emotions. You know. Oh yeah, I'm so emotional. You know that. I'm so in touch of my emotions. That's Mike and I get along. Mike and I will travel for four or five hours and we'll be like, hey, man, you're good, Yeah cool, check back in three hours. Yeah. Well i'll see you on the end of the flight when we get our bags. Yeah, but we're sitting next to each other.

Yeah yah, yeah, yeah, but we'll talk then. But I don't say much outside of the show. Yeah. I mean I know that from from texting you just about very small things. Our conversations are very short and very limited. And it was you were talking about how you had responded to a lot of texts about Dusty, and when I texted you, you're responding with a pig emoji, and I was like, I don't know what. I wonder why

I was fun. I think that's probably just one of them up And I wanted people to what Maybe maybe it was it was a powerful and a pick. It was both, but I just didn't understand the pig part. M hmm, well I don't either, or now that I think back, But I was just sending messages back to I think and emojis as good as a few words. Pos say to that too, copy and paste the same thing too. I could have done that, said hey, thank

you for your sweet message. It makes sense. I feel like consistency is such an important part of communication that people just know. I'm not going to spend a lot of time with this superfluous I'm just not. I don't. I'm not good a small talk. I'm not good at just texting for the sake of it. I've tried to be better, but I feel like I'm always consistent. So people know that when I said an emailed only at three lines, not because I'm being angry or mean. It's

because this is what I want to get get done. Yeah. No, it makes sense, and I knew that it was. That was your way of responding. I sent you back a turtle. I was like, I there, what works for you and if that's hole makes you happy, I hope it does. So you have them fun doing the show. Yeah, I love the show. I mean I love what I do, and I feel like I'm really good at it. I kind of let people get to me sometimes, like all of our Facebook haters. You can't even well, yeah, I say,

you can't. Look. But people only really right mean things on Facebook, like that's what they use it for. My analogy is, let's say you're watching Scrubs on TV and you think it's a quite funny episode, and it's also in this analogy, but you're watching Scrubs and you don't send a message to the Scrubs people going, I really enjoyed your show. Yeah. Now, so if anyone that's our show and laughs and it loves it, they don't just go, you know what, I'm moved to go and write a

message about what I really enjoyed. So the one thing that they decided not to like and so, but instead it gives everyone a release to talk about they don't like and have a sense of power when they may not have it. Yeah, well we all do it. But all of a sudden, you're equal with everyone else in

Facebook land, and maybe in life. In certain areas, you don't feel equal with everyone else and so all of a sudden, Facebook is this universal place where everyone has the same voice and you want to use it and show that you have some It's a bad place, it is. It's is such a bad place you can't get They're probably all Russian, anyway, I'll go. I'll go with that when I start reading them. But you can't like Facebook

is the worst of all of them. It is the tone of all Like if if I post something on Facebook, which I rarely do on the show page, and I'm open about it, I don't even look at that thing anymore. Occasionally I'll look to make sure that just see what stories you're posting, but I don't even look at it. But I can look at Instagram and Twitter, and there's just a different vibe in all the places. I think it's too that it has something to do with the

ages that people are using. I've noticed that Facebook is older ages. Twitter and Instagram tend to be the younger ages.

And I don't know obviously where that spectrum lies and how old, But Facebook I just find more often than not it's that older group that really just aren't going to town on Facebook comments and that's their place of doing it, whereas Twitter and Instagram is more uplifting and and maybe it just has to do with the younger generation be more adjusted to social media and liking it. But man, I just that's the biggest thing I noticed is every time it's always somebody older and they're just

hating on Yeah. Well, so one of the recent things was you challenged lu to a boxing match and Twitter voted that you guys should fight. Twitter was like, let's let's do it. And Facebook because you can see the comments. That's that thing too. On on Twitter, if you reply to someone, you never know if I get seen, Yeah, exactly. On Facebook, it's posted up there and it's for other people to comment to. Absolutely, so there's that where people

want comments on their comments. But Facebook was probably pretty brutal. I didn't go look. I mean I there was one that I just responded to because she was like, because we had just said that, hey Morgan number two is behind the Facebook, it's not Bobby, he's not posting about himself kind of thing, and um, she had said something mean about me. I was like, hey, that's me, thanks shout out cool and then she started responding with all

these screenshots of mean things people have said. I was like, Dang, that took a lot of time for you. She went in screenshot at things people have said about you. Yeah, all the bad things people had said, and I was like, Dann, you really put a lot of effort in that. But you know, it was one of those things where I was like, Okay, at this point I log off. Sometimes I'll have enough to be like here's my hey, think school, but then I just give up. You'll never get adjusted

to it. But what you can do is sometimes not put yourself in the situation to be around it. So I'll go and they'll drive me crazy to walk because these are the same people that listen all day and if you let's just say they're talking about, ah, something political, if a political Canada count to them, they would be like, oh, it's really great to meet you. But on Facebook they would write, oh you're the devil I hate you die. So Facebook is also fictional land where nothing it's not real.

Say whatever you want because it's not real and you're never gonna meet you. So why does the person What does it matter to them? You're just somebody who's on a radio show they have an opinion about. I'm under the impression that if I can just make people react, I don't only care how I'm good, because it's so hard to even matter to people anymore. So if I just get people riled up, a you're doing something right.

And with me, it's none of us are mr rogers like perfect humans, and if we perfect humans on the air all the time, that means we're not really us. So somethings that should say things that piss people off, I'm totally cool with that. And it's still I don't

think that anything. I think people are ridiculous. She's a girl, I'm like, No, if he didn't want to fight her because he felt like he was gonna beat her up real bad or physically, or he had trained, but not just because she's a girl, that's how I felt like, I want to fight you because I'm too big and strong and I've trained more. I would ever say it could be because I know you box all the time.

I wouldn't even fight Mike d because I feel like I would pound him right dy, Okay, Still, regardless about guy or a girl, that doesn't matter. It's just like, what do you go? I wouldn't fight rond Rowsey because she's a girl. No, he probably don't fight because she beat his butt, not because she's a girl. That was my only point that if you're excuses she's a girl, that doesn't float. If you're excuses, now I'm gonna hurt him or her, or they're too young or they're not

in shape enough, then I get it. But she's a girl just doesn't float for me because I don't like that excuse of why you shouldn't compete. And also it's there's rules. It's it's not like a bar fight or rules and gloves and a referee. It's an Olympic sport. So yeah, I thought any mean people like we should never hit a girl. I want to say, hit a girl. We're having two competitors compete against each other in a

sport with rules that they've both agreed to. But I do think too, he lost a boxing match once and two there's no win if he beats you up in a boxing match, so what but like you and if he loses, oh it's over, like he's done. There's no win. Yeah, I get that, but I think it's so healthy to have friendly competition between male and female and people are so against that. Yeah, I agree to again, as long as it's equally like I don't think a lunchbox challenged you,

like I don't want to beat you up. It's up to you to go. Hey, I think it a little too big and too too strong. Even if a lord, even if rond Rowsy challenged you, well, yeah I wouldn't. Yeah, it was just a fun like it was fun and friend lane turn. But I also think you can beat him up like that, like I do think Morgan number two would beat him up or outbox him. Excuse me. So yeah, people got upset about that. I don't really care. I don't think I cared to put back in him.

Was his only reason that you were a girl. I don't think that's fair. I don't think it is either, but his his reasoning kind of changed like a different time. No, I can't. Yeah, yeah, so yeah, don't let Well, that stuff will always bother you, but you have to not be around, not make yourself be around it as much. Now you're in the your job is to be around web stuff. You don't have to read every thread. You can't. We can't possibly minder every comment on our Facebook page.

This is true. I didn't, But then that girl brought to light every single one. I was like, dang, that was rough, M but it's okay. I mean honestly, when it happened, I thought of something that you had said where it was just like, you can't you can't change what people say, so you just have to change like your reaction to it. And so I just was like, Okay,

I'm gonna go away from this for a while. Yeah, you can always judge yourself how other people react to you and how you handle that situation because people are always going to have about me. People always gonna have angry things say about me always, and if they stop, then I'm too safe and I'm going to fail and flame out. If I ever stopped having big opinions, no one's going to be able to agree or disagree with

those opinions, and then I'm going to go away. Yes, so, and I understand that at times I gotta take that the old stick and put in the soup and just shake it up. I don't even think that was a shake up yesterday, Like, honestly, just thought it was a fun I was laughing so hard at that segment that had tears of my eyes. It was really one of those segments that I think I'll laugh harder than anything so far this year. But yeah, don't let to get to you. You can't let that get to you because

it will be way worse. Oh I will. I will tell you that segment yesterday. I think that was the most like authentic version of myself because I am a little spitfire. I have a lot of energy. Even put up a front right, Mike. Mike says nothing all day. I had dinner with a friend last night and she was like, Hey, just so, Miked does comedy out on the road. I said, yeah, he goes out and does the first ten minutes. I've never heard him talk, I said, he doesn't in the studio. I don't think Mike, he

says three words all morning. He just knows where I'm going or tries to predict it, and is always handed me paper and notes and like here's the story about talking about here's this, this, this, but not interesting. So are you happy with your decision to join the show. Yes, I'm always happy, always happy in life. No, just that I joined this, that I decided to take the jump and do it, even though my you know, there's uncomfort in doing that and fears and stuff. I took that leap,

and I did it. And if you ever get into something where there is no uncovered or fear, you're probably not getting in anything worth being in Imagine if you've got something you're like, I'm totally comfortable and I don't fear anything, Like you're just gonna tread water. Yeah you're not. You're not moving anywhere, You're not doing what's the goal? What's the goal for you? Honestly, this was the goal when I had started in radios, like that would be

the ultimate dream job. And now I'm kind of like, I don't know, Like this is just kind of I hit this goal. Now I got to figure out what you do, what your next move is and how I don't even I don't even know what my next movie is. Like to talk about unpredictable, Mike, what's gonna happen with us? I don't neither. Yeah, I don't either, And and I think even a bit that's got a way on everybody else because they're like, what's Bobby gonna do? But I don't know? So what do you guys want for me?

You got lots of options want I mean, that's not that's just gonna be some episodes and be over, but that has oddly opened a bunch of doors or people are like, hey, we hear you're cool, so they don't even know if I'm cool, don't know anything about me. It's but I've been able to see it firsthand from a different place, where people in California now are going l A, are going, hey, so here, you're kind of cool. We'd like to offer you. And I'm like, you don't

even know anything about like you haven't seen anything. You just heard I might be kind of cool and you're offering me something and they go, yeah, oh, that's what the culture is all about. Like it's just people trying to get up. And but that's I'm never I don't say never. I don't think I'll ever stop doing radio in some form. I do. I do think podcasts will be very big for you. Yeah, and I think this one is too. And you know, I think we've put a lot of effort and work into this, and there

are some guys have been doing for five years already. Um, but it I think that how we've developed this little program of not just the show, but promoting it through the radio show and intertwining it with other shows. I do think that's a bit different, and I think it'll work. I want to build out the build a studio on my house and just do everything, never leave my house. I don't think that's then you've become like a really true introvert and we'd have to come and pry you

out of your house. And he's already talked about if they ever build your studio in your house, will never see you again. Ever you can't, then you'll be the recluse on the news like fifty years from now, like this guy left his house. Yeah, yeah, it would be awesome. Yeah, as long as you have a good setup, I think you're pretty good. I never have to leave my house. So personally, at the time of this podcast, your boyfriend's

not here. He's no, he's in Wisconsin. How weird is it to have your personal life broadcast now to everybody. It's hard. It's hard, really hard. Yeah, it's hard. And there's days where I'm like, gosh, I never gonna get married, Like is somebody really going to be able to put up with all this? But at me I'm not. Yeah, it's tough. It's an adjustment and you either have to go in or not. Like Eddie's decided, not to go in. He just he's like, I'm not talking about wife, no

kid pictures. I'm gonna act like I'm a good and that's just his thing. So I don't really use them for that anymore. He's funny, witty. I can talk to them about things. But I know he's he's decided that he's not going to be vulnerable and put that part out there. He's have to. That's not his job, but

he decided that isn't that's not what he wants to do. Um. What he does is he provides someone that's pretty quick and can make funny comments back with stories and does a great job what he's hired to do, which is that at videos and we planned. He's great to hang around. We play a band together. We're like someone like Amy and myself. We just kind of put it all out there,

good or bad, and we've committed to that. But you have to either commit or not because I can't kind of be tiptoeing around what you want to talk about. And I and for me like I like being authentic. I know you make fun of my Instagram posts and my you're vague you know, feeling and yeah, she's on stairs looking down and all of his hashtag feeling confused and I'm like about what. I want to see your picture. I want to know what you feel like confused about

so I can help. Yeah. Yeah. Once I was like, oh, she's leaving the show. It was some. It was like, I I miss home. It has all of her like moms and sisters and aunts look exactly like you, and they're all together, like I miss home. My only dream in life is to move back home and get off the Bobby Bones show hashtag. And I'm like, wait, by reading this, I would lead me to assume that you want to leave the show. She's like, no, I just felt that way that night. It's true, though, Like I mean,

I like putting myself out there in that sense. So I am all in and it's hard. It doesn't mean it's not hard to do that, but um, I am and and he's great and he's been super supportive, so I you know, that's all I can ask for. Ever his friends ever call him and he heard no, not really. Can we address the fact we have two Morgan's on this show and that I never I don't know another Morgan in my life just to right here? Yeah, well

more than number one. You talked about it because she's really ever on the air, so it's easy to just remove their Morgan number one. So now there's a Morgan number two without a Morgan number one, but it sticks out. And that's why I kept that way, because it's such a name that people remember more number two. Like what, you don't even need it, Morgan. If someone just called and said, hey, my name is Trent number seven, I

would go, I've met a few Trents. I don't remember that, but I remember Trent number seven, and so yeah, so it's stuck. And now you you slowly have your own segments. Yeah, it's crazy. It feels weird that this is happening, that this is real life. The people are homelessen yes, yeah, yeah, oh yeah. My my sisters, my two oldest sisters grew up listening to you before I ever did. And so they know you guys. They feel like they know you

guys better than I do. And they always text me after after segments and say how they feel about things, and I'm like, gosh, I feel like you guys know them better than I do. And I sit in that studio every day, but they all do. And it's fun and they love it and they're proud of you. Yeah. Cool to them, yeah, all of them. And that's always the topic of conversation when I go home. So sometimes they avoid it because I'm like, I don't want to talk about work when I come home. Did they say

what's Amy like? Yes? Oh? They ask about how all of you guys are like in real life? What's Amy like in her life? Nice and sweet and feisty. Those are like the three things I would describe her with. What's what's Bobby like in her life? Um? Caring? Sometimes, introverted and exciting? Exciting? Am I exciting? Man? I think she do? We mute her that word? Un you have you have a really good personality about you. When you get excited about things. You can tell when you're really excited,

you get other people excited about them. And you have a way of doing that that's really cool, which again back to our first point. I have no idea what people get excited about things that I get excited about, but I do apprey. I appreciate it, but I don't want to always understand it. Um anything else might you want to know about? More? Game or two? I feel like I've got you have got to nowhere better or

twice you guys hung out this. Here's what I would suggest to you, Morgan number two, you should reach out to everybody on this show separately and say, hey, listen, if you get I'd like to get on the account and your calendar and with me now, especially not to

totally douche it up my calendars jam packed. Yeah. I mean, you get to know more douche than saying I have a four calendar, but I think I felt my calendar up so I don't have a loan time, especially now it's it's it's a whole two sided things like I'm such a douche, but I'm a douche because I'm actually hurting, you know that kind of thing. So to say, hey, reach out to me, Hey if you get an hour, love to have lunch sometime, or to me, you're to anybody the only one that's gonna be weird about his

lunch box. Surprisingly I did have I've had lunch with lunch box and it went really well. He feels like my older brother. Where you guys fighting that led to this lunch usually on a reason because when I used to make him a nod to go to lunch It was because they would fight so much, like you guys have to have you have to go and spend human time together. No, it was just like, um, he just feels like my brother sometimes, like we always kind of argue in a sense like that and should box them? Hey,

I tried. I assume to that, Mike, who do they would win her lunch box? Really? Yeah, I want to see that straight up boxing eipent go and head say people like he want puncher, but we're gonna put helmets, headsets on you guy, even with the mask on the front. Can you just imagine us and like our boxing gear, like getting ready to gear up and we have walkout songs. A program director, Gator Harrison came in, Gator super kind and gentle, and he's like, oh, yeah, you guys have

to box. It's like there has to be a thing. And I was like, wow, even you're He's like, oh yeah, that has to be a thing. I don't know why they wouldn't be a thing. Just because she's a girl. That's not a good reason. And I was like, that's what I'm talking about. Yeah, Well, Morgan number two, thanks for hanging out, but I have a question for you. I'm ready, go ahead. What have you thought about me

coming into this world? Would have been your feeling? Well, I think you're pleasant to be around, and that's always the first thing for anyone in the room. You can't be on my room and not be pleasant for everyone to be around. And so that's always the first thing, because I'll find out all of the idiostecracies of your work, ethic and um. So firstly, you're pleasant to be around. You put because everyone in that room, Eddie, Amy, you, lunch box, some you're all way more pleasant than I am.

Because one, I hate mornings, and too, I got so much going on to but I have a show. I have to execute a show. Now, I put myself in the position that I don't want anybody else to know, so everyone else gets to be a slightly more relaxed. I need them to be relaxed and to where I'm in and I'm you know, knee deep in what we're doing that day, so I don't have a lot of time to you know, give handshakes and kisses. But I've done that to myself. I've it's not something it's something

I've built from it's the house I built. And so you're pleasant to be around. You only learn someone's work ethic after you've been able to see it for a while. You're hard worker. And also you respond to things quickly on text, which I'm like, handy this, and it's always I'm away right now, but give me this much time. And so it's like boom because I'm very much like frantic and I needed right now. Okay, I haven't four it, but I needed right now, like I'm I'm nuts, and

so you handle my nuts pretty well? Yeah, there it is, Okay, you handle my nuttiness pretty well. And so yeah, and the other everybody else in the room likes you. That's a big part of being a nut room is you have to be liked because we've just all been friends and if you they don't like you. And they don't like you, I can't like you because I need them to fit together. We're all our own weird piece of

the puzzle. And so now I think you compliment it, well, I think Mike d compliments Well, it's Mike doesn't do it. Mike's just like a human lug over there, not saying anything, but he fact checks everything. He makes sure he does. You just don't know he does a lot because he's not saying anything. He's that behind the scenes that's vital. He's writing games, he's doing all kinds of mighty does a ton. But he fits because he's not He's like the oposit of lunch bikes. Yeah, you know, you have

Amy and I kind of the opposite, you know. So, yeah, it's it's a room to fit that. So I think you're pleasant. I think you work hard. Um, I think you appreciate it. Um, you get here before people most of the time and not all the time, you know, and you also realize you have something that you have to prove, not to me, but to the whole thing is that we we haven't. He spent a year with you, so you kind of have to pay your dues in

you gotta show up before people. Work go longer than people because we've been grinding this thing out for so long and so and you know, um, just our web and our digital members has never been better. So I'm also a data person. Let's look at data and let's see. So I think you're doing a great job. I wouldn't put you on the boby becaust if I didn't. Yeah, like I'm firing this girl tomorrow. This is the Bobycust. We actually fire you. You just had to get it

on air. So I think you're doing great. Well. Yeah, and I wouldn't say that if I didn't, so I always tell Mike though, was like, I'm so nervous. I wish you'd asked me to have lunch or something I've never us to. Yeah, I'm like, I just keep waiting every day. I'm uncomfortable today. Well now I'm gonna do that because we were both uncomfortable. Now I'll make sure I do it. I'm always uncomfortable, so no difference for me. I live in a land of uncomfortable nous, the uncomfortable

sars Rex they call me mhm. But we're gonna say anything else. Yeah, just I'm going to do that now. Yeah you should, but not just to me, just two people, you know. I wrote about that in my new book, where it's if someone reaches out to me and goes, hey, gotta, I gotta let's hang out. I'm like, cool, cool, cool, probably won't but I go cool and think about But I also have a song coming out next week. I'm like, okay, now for sure I'm not going to and I know

what you're trying to do. Where if someone goes, hey, let's hang out, and I'm like, cool, what do you have going on? Like nothing, I just thought we'd hang out, so I probably don't like gonna do it. But then I go, oh, they're just actually wanted to hang out. So the next time they say let's hang out, or three times later and they say have a new song, we check it out. I I feel okay about that other than the just coming around when it's time to

address something that helps them. And to what I wrote was, you know, there are people in your life that can you can help and they can help you if you just maintain some sort of surface ish relationship that exists other than when you need something, that when you do need something, it's so much more organic to ask for it and it's not. It doesn't feel weird, it doesn't feel like you're manipulating. Well, at least know that when I ask you, I don't have songs coming out. I

have nothing. Hey, I'm like, yeah, hey, can I get a raise? I got literally nothing, So that okay. Wait, what is your word that you don't you don't like literally? What is the word that I'm figuratively. No, you say have nothing, because that means the same thing is figuratively I have nothing. You have nothing. Good, So if I ask you, I mean it. Okay, then I will see you soon, and by soon we're gonna walk out in the studio over there and then do a little project.

But Morgan number two on Twitter at web girl Morgan is that your Instagram to at web girl Morrigan. There you go. Thank you very much. Yeah, yeah, it's been a episode one all right, Thank everybody.
